Classes Available:

MYP Design Technology (STEM Class) - Team taught by Mr. Jernigan & Mrs. Wilkins. Design, CNC/CAM work. Some time in the shop assembling & finishing. Students will design their own small lighted sign, their own coasters & their own side table. It's fun packed and never boring kind of class, come join us for this brand new class!!

Intro Tech Drawing & Design (STEM Class) - Students will build on the MYP Design Technology concepts learned with a focus on 3D Computer Aided Drafting (CAD) software used in industry. Students will learn how to design, modify, assemble and manage complex parts in a 3D space as well as producing 2D drawings from the 3D models. The use of SolidWorks will allow students to bring their projects to the real world through additive or subtractive manufacturing techniques. Technology and Engineering 1 will end with all students taking the Certified SolidWorks Associate (CSWA) exam, an Industry Certification Test.

Applied Engineering Design (STEM Class) - This is an applied course for students interested in further developing their skills as future engineers. This course covers microcontrollers, fluid power, small electronics, manufacturing processes and robotics. Additionally, multiple guest speakers will discuss current topics in the Technology and Engineering fields. Upon completion of this course, proficient students are able to explain the differences between scientists and engineers, understand the importance of ethical practices in engineering and technology, follow the steps in the engineering design process to complete multiple team projects, and effectively communicate design solutions to others.

IB Design Technology (STEM Class) - 6th subject area for the IB program OR taken for a certificate if you are not in the IB program. Prerequisite is taking Engineering 1 minimum. If you believe engineering is your calling, then this is THE class for you.

Construction Technology A (Woods - STEM Class) - Students are working on a variety of projects from turning on midi lathes, carving, routing bowls and 14 sided boxes.

Construction Technology B (Advanced Woods - STEM Class) - Had fun in Woods? See your counselor on how to sign up. Please note: You must have passed Woods with a B or better.

Technology Student Association (TSA) - Meetings will start in Mid-September for this before school club that allows the students to compete in over 74 different events. There are State and National levels of competition. We meet Friday mornings 7:45 am - 8:20 am in room 218.
